Title:
  bad ui when clicking on "install" in the details pane while another
  install is in progress

Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  There is no indication of progress or that its waiting when clicking
  on "install" in the appdetailsview while another app is already
  installing. The UI will just show a progressbar but nothing more. We
  should probably add some text in the progress "waiting for task to
  finish" ideally from a existing string or via dgettext from aptdaemon

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#software-item-screen-state-
  installed>: "If the item is being installed or removed, or is queued
  for installation or removal (but not if its add-ons are being
  changed), the status text for the installation at the leading end, and
  a progress bar at the trailing end."

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#installing>: "If the item is
  queued waiting for another package manager to close, the status text
  for the item should be “Waiting for {Application Name} to exit”. If
  the item is queued waiting for any other activity to complete, the
  status text for the item should be “Waiting”."

  It may save time to fix bug 954652 at the same time as this bug.
